Paul O’Carroll is the founder of Arcol. He is the son of a passionate architect, and he racked up some first-hand industry experience at the start of his career as well. He is deeply familiar with the frustrating workflows and tools that have defined the building design experience over the last few decades — and that’s exactly why set out to build Arcol with a complete overhaul of the foundations and assumptions that existing tools are built on.
How close are we to having viable alternatives to BIM 1.0? Snaptrude, Motif, Arcol, Hypar, Qonic and Autodesk discuss BIM 2.0 and how the next 18 months to 2 years will be essential to having alternative modelling tools powered by AI.
